Abstract

A network socket connector with built-in IP BOX function includes a base, a front cover, a circuit board, an upper cover and a metallic housing. A rear surface of the base is provided with a plurality of conductive pins and a front surface thereof is provided with a plurality of electrode terminals. The front cover is assembled to the front end of the base and has a connecting port. The circuit board has a network AV streaming broadcast circuit. The upper cover is assembled with the base and the front cover. The metallic housing is configured as a hollow body for sealing the base, the front cover, the circuit board and the upper cover. When a plug of a network line is inserted into the connecting port to be electrically connected with the electrode terminals, the Internet can be accessed by the network AV streaming broadcast circuit of the circuit board.

Claims
